Dusan, Sam,

To generalize the answer, the application driven modulfiles can be 
tracked by module variables  ($LOADEDMODULES, and $MODULE PATH) and use 
entire dictionary of module operations.. That's is  not only unloaded or 
switched between applications env., but you can conduct environment 
analysis and make decisions on the fly: switch versions, steps of the 
workflow, data based on the status. You can see an example @ we made for 
the bufr use (different versions) on the module nceplibs trac page:
"*/How to Engage NCEPLIBS modules and Assign Yours New Variables?..."/*
https://svnemc.ncep.noaa.gov/trac/nceplibs/wiki/Assign

On LMOD systems  (next level,  on Theia, Yellowstone, and most likely on 
the upcoming system) there are some new env. variables , like:
$LMOD_DEFAULT_MODULEPATH which gives additional module "families" 
capability.

However, it is all about convenience and best practice.
Of course, you can write anything in low level scripts. The the 
realities are we still have to use system, 3rd parties, nceplibs etc. 
modules.

Cheers,
-Eugene
